Did you know that over ten people are vying for chief of staff position?...Bwahahahahaaaa




Fake News has it purposely wrong. Many, over ten, are vying for and wanting the White House Chief of Staff position. Why wouldn’t someone want one of the truly great and meaningful jobs in Washington. Please report news correctly. Thank you!

Because they don't have expertise in impeachment proceedings. A current requirement for the job.

Have an Apprentice/celebrity competition. Bring back Omarosa, Gary Busey, and Meatloaf.

I'm rooting for Busey.

I've thought for awhile now, since the orange baby's election, that he would, he could, use more of the medium that made him a household name to begin with. Together with Fox, create a kind of reality show. "Inside the White House...the toughest job in the world!". Where the camera would follow him around and capture totally NOT staged (wink wink) daily events where he presides over important meetings and makes grand statements and decisions. Or wears combat gear and has surprise pop up visits with military bases.

And even for appointments like this. Actually have a re-creation of The Apprentice to fill this job. After all the laughing dies down at the idea, think about it. His own deplorables will watch with glued eyes, but even a lot of others if only for curiosity. A lot of usual non-voters would watch and could be drawn in to his fake promises.

I think Trump missed the opportunity to go "all in" Make the Presidency all about him, as a network show, and create problems for him to solve, which he would do (acting doing something) every week. I'm sure his pal Mark Burnette would help out. In this day and age, Something like that, where they get to create their own reality for a full hour every week? I think it could work for him. I'm just glad he didn't.

So will he be picking one of his grandchildren? Who probably are more mature than their grandfather.
